The Power of Patient-Physician Partnerships

Honestly, most people who come to this practice do want a partnership in their health. So it's like the patients understand that we want to know them as people, not just, you know, what their diagnoses are and what medications they're taking, but what their life looks like, you know, day to day, how much are they sleeping, what are they eating, are they under a lot of stress, are they moving, are they practicing any sort of stress management or resilience practice? You know, what kind of historic health background do they have? All the things that would help us to know them as holistic people that would help us to take care of them, even though, you know, they may not have multiple diagnoses or multiple medications. I think all of those things are really important in understanding the individual before you and being able to help them to be as healthy as they can be.
